General ASW800 sub question

[miner]

When I get my sub I will need to get a cable. I have seen the cables with the 2 jacks on one end ( for sub) and single jack for pre end. Why 2 jacks for sub end and only single jack for pre end (and does it matter if pre end is R or L channel - and, if not, why). A noob trying to understand. Thanks. :T

In my experience, it doesn't really matter which input you use, although some purists do advocate using a "Y" splitter and going into both left and right inputs

So then it does not matter which output I use from the pre - R or L?

miner, as advised in one of my previous posts, I strongly recommend that you download the ASW800 Owner's manual from B&W's web site. In that manual you will see that you need 2 RCA cables between your preamp and the sub, and 2 RCA cables between the sub and your amp.

If you can't find the Owner's Manual, drop me a PM with your email address and I'll send you a copy.
